The iliopsoas muscle is the primary hip flexor and assists in external rotation of the hip joint, playing an important role in maintaining the strength and integrity of the hip joint. Unilateral psoas contraction assists with lateral motion, while bilateral contraction elevates the trunk from supine.
Nerve: Femoral nerve, Lumbar nerves L1, L2. Action: Flexion of hip (psoas major/minor, iliacus), spine rotation (psoas major/minor) Antagonist: Gluteus maximus, posterior compartment of thigh.
